Question by Disa Trix: Is it, from a legal standpoint, illegal to use or purchase ephedra/ephedrine for personal use?

I know ephedra/ephedrine is illeagle to sell as a diet supplement, but still many stores, both on and off shore sell it. Would it be illegal for me to buy it, for personal use only, or use it?

Best answer:

Answer by Douglas Wintergreen
In the US, ephedra can no longer be sold in dietary supplements, but it is still legally sold for asthma, colds, allergies, other disease, or traditional Asian use.

Happy Trails!
